[Intro] E A [Verse 1]
A           D             A
Many years ago in days of childhood

  E                                      A
I used to play untill evening time would come

     A               D            A
Then winding down an old familiar pathway

  E                              A
I hear my mother call at setting sun
[Chorus]
     D                         A
Come home come home it's suppertime

    E                A   A7
The shadows lengthen fast

     D                         A
Come home come home it's suppertime

      E             A
We're going home at last
[Verse a]
A                                  D                    A
Some of the fondest memories of my childhood are woven around suppertime

                    E
When mother used to call from the backsteps of the old homeplace

         A
"Come on home now son, it's suppertime"

                                         D            A
My how I'd love to hear that once again. But you know time has woven for me a realization

                       E
Of a truth that's even more thrilling.

                                    A
That soon we'll be called together around the great supper table up there

                 D
For the greatest suppertime of them all with our Lord

A                                                   E
  I can almost hear the call now coming through the portals of heaven

                     A
"Come home son, it's suppertime"
[Chorus]
     D                         A
Come home come home it's suppertime

    E                A   A7
The shadows lengthen fast

     D                         A
Come home come home it's suppertime

      E             A
We're going home at last
